As a person who took in a baby squirrel that had fallen out of its nest, I can testify that they definitely love to snorgle. And hide their food in the oddest places all over the house. And wake you up at the crack of dawn by jumping on top of you, Simon’s cat style, from the laundry basket.

“Heyyyyy. You look SOOOO…pretty…I’m REEAAALLLY looking forward to tonight. I know this great Korean barbecue spot and…I’m sorry, I can’t do this. You looked WAY different online. Plus, Jersey Shore is on tonight, so…yeah……Leave those sunflower seeds there, though.”

We did the same. Found one an number of years ago that was not weaned wandering about the yard after a bad windstorm. Mom never came for her for two days although she cried. So we took her in. I fed her puppy formula until she weaned and then a little while later she went to live in the tree in our back yard. She would come whenever I called and she ate walnuts in my lap twice a day. We would play together and she loved my dangling earrings. Then she would fall asleep in my hands while I rubbed her belly. I miss her so.

I found it clinging to the base of a tree on a really cold and rainy late October day. I took it home and then brought it back to the tree the next day when the weather had cleared up. It didn’t want to stay and jumped back on my shoulder, so we took it back home, thinking that we were going to release it in the spring.

It didn’t seem to miss home at all, and was pretty happy to be around us even when our cat tried to snorgle it. My mom had a huge wide mouthed milk jar that we turned into a nest for him. By late December we discovered that it had “seizures”, so we assumed that that’s the reason his mom had kicked him out. It died in early January before spring came 😦

Sorry everyone he is my boy and taken:-) And it is CHARLEY from hurricane Charley 7 years ago he was only a little pea when he was blown out of his nest in my back yard, I took him in he was not able to be released as he can not hang upside down like they have to in the wild….so we watch TV every night and he is rather good on the computer 🙂 He and I go outside daily he loves the walks………
